Qionghua, the ancient Mother of Flowers, defied the laws of Heaven and fell in love with a mortal named Feng Changxin.
Heaven’s punishment descended. Not a blade of grass remained on Picking Flower Mountain, her beloved died, and she was stripped of her divine status and cast into the cycle of reincarnation.
When they meet in each life, they have only the brief moment when the night-blooming cereus opens and closes. They can be together while the flower blooms, then sleep forever when it fades.
Three hundred years later, a seed of night-blooming cereus carrying the Mother of Flowers’ remnants of soul broke through the earth and gave rise to the flower spirit Qingshu.
She sneaked away from the Heavenly Realm’s Pure Heaven, only to run into a demon that looked exactly like the divine official Mang Tong!
With no way to tell the real official from the fake, and demons lurking in the shadows, a rogue immortal from the Great Bear Tribe is also eyeing her, intent on stealing her spiritual essence.
On one side is the aloof, restrained true divine official, who protects her at every turn.
On the other is a phantom beast pretending to love her, all the while plotting to claim her soul.
But Qingshu doesn’t know that deep within her own soul lies the sleeping tribulation of love that the Mother of Flowers, Qiong, carried across countless ages.
When the night-blooming cereus blossoms again, the love and hatred of a past life and the curse of Heaven’s punishment will sweep over them once more.
A flower blooms for an instant, and two hearts meet; it fades in a moment, and they are parted by life and death.
“I do not fear Heaven’s punishment. I only fear waking up each time and never seeing you again.”
